I saw a post that said “What if your whole personality is a trauma response?” and I haven’t been the same since.

People who experience trauma don’t see the world like others do. The lens we see things out of are different, we smell differently, we hear differently, even hugs to us don’t mean the same thing.

I reflected on myself throughout the years and I can see where 98% of the time how I showed up was a trauma response. Fight, Flight and Fawn was how I responded to almost every situation. I’m thankful for healing. Triggers will happen, situations will pop up but understanding why you are triggered makes a difference.

When you hear that statement what pops up for you? I feel like this is a table discussion that can be ongoing.

🌸✨ I’m beyond excited for this year’s Seeds to Flowers “Harvesting Hope” Gala! 🌸✨

This year feels extra special as we celebrate growth, impact, and community! 💕

We’ll be honoring some incredible women who embody the heart of our mission:

🏆 Awardees: Quiasia Jackson and Ashley Andrews — two powerful young women who are leading with purpose and inspiring the next generation.

🌟 Honoree: Dr. Asya Johnson, founder of the new HBCU-themed school, whose vision and leadership continue to make history!

And we’re just getting started… 💫
We’re officially launching our Seeds to Flowers Mentoring Program — a two-tier initiative where:

🌱 High school students will mentor junior high girls, and
🌷 Adults will mentor our high school students — creating a full circle of empowerment and growth.

Through our initiative, our impact has reached new levels — transforming lives, building confidence, and creating pathways to success. 🙌🏽

I’m so proud of all the amazing work our team, partners, and community are doing — and I can’t wait to celebrate it all together! 🎉

Hi, I’m Pamela 👋🏾 coach, therapist, speaker, and creator of several businesses including, Getting Back To You. After years of helping women navigate their trauma, burnout, and self-doubt, I knew it was time to build something that centered YOU. I’ve been where you are. I’ve experienced childhood trauma, IPV and much more! One thing I know is you don’t have to stay stuck. If you feel that way then Getting Back To You is for YOU!

✨ “I don’t look like what I’ve been through.” ✨

Behind every smile, there’s a story of resilience. Trauma may have left its mark, but it doesn’t define who you are today. You are strong, you are worthy, and you are more than your past. 💜

If you’ve been carrying pain in silence, remember—you don’t have to walk this journey alone. Seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness. Healing is possible, and your story can bloom into hope. 🌸

💬 Share this with a sister, daughter, or friend who needs a reminder that beauty, courage, and healing are on the other side of trauma.

So true! Embracing it 🧡

Outgrowing old versions of yourself doesn’t mean you’re behind—it means you’re evolving exactly as you should.

Growth isn’t always comfortable, but it’s always right on time. Trust the process. Keep moving forward.
